Several evacuations occurred near Buckeye Lake, and Interstate 70 was closed as the lake spilled across the eastbound lanes near the State Route 79 interchange in southern Licking county.  Lake Saint Marys also rose out of its banks, flooding businesses in the southern part of Celina in Mercer county.  Big Walnut Creek rose out of its banks in eastern Franklin county, causing significant flooding across the eastern Columbus suburbs, and specifically in the city of Gahanna.
